Gloves
« on: May 07, 2016, 07:16:07 AM »
Our performance wear shirts are hot when they come out of the oven.
I would like to get thin white cotton gloves for the people working behind the oven.
Where can I get these at a reasonable price?

What about some rubber thimbles instead?  Better grip.

At the moment we are printing 5000 shirts both sides, that's at least 2 days printing, they need something comfortable.
We heated up the oven a little and ran it faster so the shirts are coming out hot.
Maybe I should put a fan over the belt at the end of the oven and cool the shirts down a bit.

My dryer (48" x 20' harco) has a unit that sets on the output with two small motors and 12" fans blowing down for that purpose, it makes a huge difference when doing performance wear.

Just make sure that air is not blowing back in the chamber.

This is what I have done in the past with dryers that don't have enough out-feed to keep shirts from falling onto themselves while still really hot. Like mentioned, slightly angled away from the heat chamber.
That rug really tied the room together, did it not?

Our catchers wear the rubber dot cotton gloves from uline. They are around $10 per dozen.
